Flashback Friday

Flashback Friday is something I thought would be fun to start...a way to look back

For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

Romans 15:4

So, on Fridays I'm going to take a look back as I do feel like our past molds us on who we are today. When we take a look at the past we might even learn a thing or two.

Today marks the very 1st flashback Friday.

This was the 1st day of preschool

they only went one morning a week but it was something they looked forward too everyday!

On this rainy day it was hard for me to drop them off for 4 hours. I remember getting choked up in the car thinking am I leaving them too young? but in the long run looking back today it was a great decision. Their relationships and learning has blossomed into something beautiful.

They love school, they love their friendships they created, they love to explore their world without their mommy right next to them. Their teachers have poured into their sweet character and helped make them who they are. I'm proud of who the twins have become! They are both still completely different and have become such beautiful individuals that compliment each other like an old married couple.

This is the twins graduating Pre-K

I always thought it was so funny for kids to be "graduating from preschool" ... until you have your own. It's a milestone I now understand as a right of passage into the school system for another 18 years. For the years ahead their minds are going to grow into knowledgeable young adults. Preschool marks the beginning foundation for their career in school.This is so sad for me as their independence is going to grow more and more while I'm learning to let go more and more. I'm not sure what subjects they will enjoy the most or what they will become but I do know they have a really great foundation to enjoy learning!
Thank you preschool teachers for pouring your love into my precious children, they are an example of hard work and dedication.
